Veteran Memorials

A veteran's memorial can honor a life of service with emblems, symbols and words chosen with respect. These designs span every memorial form — flat markers, bronze, slants and uprights — and are planned around the requirements of the cemetery where they will stand.

Honoring a life of service

Families of veterans often wish to recognize service within the memorial — a branch emblem, a rank or unit, the years and places served, or simply a quiet line of gratitude. Any memorial form can carry these details respectfully. Some families also ask about government-furnished markers and medallions; eligibility for those is determined solely by the responsible government agency, and we are glad to help families understand how a private memorial can complement whatever they receive.

Personalization options vary by memorial form and cemetery. We can help review published requirements and identify the details that should be confirmed before the design is finalized.

Available styles, dimensions, materials and finishes may vary by cemetery section. Cemetery rules vary by location and section. Final dimensions, materials, finishes, foundations and installation requirements must be confirmed with the cemetery before production. Stone House can help your family review available information and coordinate questions with the cemetery before production. Eligibility for government-furnished markers, medallions or benefits is determined by the responsible government agency, not by Stone House.
